2001 Vauxhall Astra Coupe review from UK and Ireland
"A very good looking fast car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Flywheel mounting shattered on motorway - twice.
Major oil and transmission leaks.
Engine has been rebuilt three times.
General comments?
I brought this car from new and ordered the full Irmerscher styling kit. When the car arrived it looked amazing.
The acceleration is unbelievable for a car that costs less than £20K.
